Thanks, but you generated the v2 on top of v1. You need to generate
the patch as if v1 didn't get applied (because it is not going in).

For future reference, if it would be a follow-up, then it wouldn't be
a "v2"..

And you need to explicit tag the patch with 'net' or 'net-next',
indicating which tree you target. net is for fixes, net-next for
cleanups/new features. net-next is good here.

Thanks,
Marcelo
